It makes me very nervous when I see philosophy departments being closed down all around. I'm not surprised when I hear some of the stupid things philosophy students say and the fact that the only skill they seem to be equipped with in life is ability to piss their fellows off with their constant and meaningless questioning of everything. I mean, who wants to work to someone like that in Starbucks? "But who says we should throw the soyamilk away after 3 hours? Why not 4? Isn't this just another expression of greedy capitalist control of the workers?" Well, yes it is. The only difference Skip is you spent £24k to work that out whilst the rest of us were qualifying to become lawyers and accountants - extra shot please and make it snappy.
No, my nervousness is simply that I might be next for the chop - but somehow I doubt it.
Anyway, I think I heard the Baron fall of his chair, so I'm going to check on him to make sure he's okay. I've also got some marking to do and the Barefoot Contessa's on again later, so I'll have to think about this again and get back to you. Happy Friday.
